    Just keep trying the more you try the better it gets :)

    I was trying to make it round but I kept running into problems with the custom cockpit, such as I could not figure out how to build an adapter from the trapezoid shape to a semi-circle. I used images from google like I do for almost all of my planes. I think the problem with the wings was I made them relative to the horizontal stabilizer instead of to the body and that the horizontal stabilizers were too big.@TheChosenZebra

    @RyneKuczy I suggest rounding it and making the wings shorter since this looks more like a f4f wildcat to me, did you use original plans and images to make it?

    @RyneKuczy same here! Look at my prop planes, they failed MISERABLY, then look at my jet planes, they work perfectly!
